Yttrium-90(90Y)selective internal radiation therapy(SIRT)is an emerging modality for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC),leveraging the nuclide 90Y to deliver targeted radiation therapy.90Y has a long half-life and can be used to selectively ablate tumor cells by high-energy beta rays.It has high biological effectiveness and robust local control capabilities.In recent years,with the continuous advancement of basic and clinical research,the application of 90Y-SIRT in the conversion treatment of unresectable HCC(uHCC)has made significant progress.However,challenges remain in the clinical application of 90Y-SIRT,including how to improve the efficacy of conversion therapy and how to optimize therapy regimens.This review aims to summarize the research progress of90Y-SIRT in the conversion therapy of uHCC.

Objective To explore the effects of mental fatigue on attention maintenance function by electroencephalogram(EEG)signal characteristics and cortical source analysis.Methods A total of 25 healthy males were recruited as subjects and contingent negative variation(CNV)auditory paradigm was used to assess the differences in EEG characteristics before and after mental fatigue,with the average amplitude of CNV at different processing stages as the analysis indices.Then,the 3-dimensional distribution of cortical current density changes of CNV after mental fatigue were calculated by standardized low-resolution electromagnetic tomography analysis(sLORETA).Results The reaction time of the CNV signal remained unchanged following mental fatigue(P＞0.05),while the lapse rate exhibited a significant increase(P＜0.05).Besides,mental fatigue was related to a notable decrease in the amplitude of CNV early components(500-1 000 ms after warning stimulus)at the central and central parietal electrodes,and a significant reduction in the amplitude of CNV late components(2 550-3 050 ms after warning stimulus)at the prefrontal,frontal,central,and central parietal electrodes(all P＜0.05).The results of sLORETA source analysis showed that the brain activity in the left posterior insular cortex decreased after mental fatigue during the late component of CNV(P＜0.05).Conclusion The decreased activation of the posterior insula,which plays a crucial role in sensorimotor information integration,could potentially serve as a neural mechanism for the reduction of CNV amplitude and the impairment of attention maintenance function following mental fatigue.

Objective:To analyzed the chemical components of Black Tartary Buckwheat using Ultra-performance liquid chromatography coupled with quadrupole-electrostatic field orbitrap high-resolution mass spectrometry (UPLC-Q-Exactive Orbitrap MS); To further compared the compositional differences under various drying conditions.Methods:UPLC-Q-Exactive Orbitrap MS was employed to scan 14 samples of Black Tartary Buckwheat in 4 batches, aiming to identify the major chemical components. ACQUITY UPLC HSS T3 C18 column (2.1 mm×100 mm, 1.7 μm) was adopted; mobile phase was 0.1% formic acid aqueous solution-acetonitrile solution; flow rate was 0.3 ml/min for gradient elution; HESI-Ⅱ ion source was used to detect negative ions.

Based on the similarity cluster analysis of UPLC-Q-Exactive Orbitrap MS secondary mass spectrometry fragment patterns, a molecular network was established, and the main compounds in Black Tartary Buckwheat were flavonoids, phenolic acids and amino acids, and the results showed that the positive and negative ion modes had similar clustering results. There were certain differences in the content of flavonoids, phenolic acids, and amino acids in Black Tartary Buckwheat under two different drying conditions.Conclusion:The established UPLC-Q-Exactive Orbitrap MS method enables rapid identification of the main chemical components in Black Tartary Buckwheat, while the constructed molecular network provides a reference framework for further research on its chemical composition. Additionally, the drying conditions are found to exert certain effects on the content of these chemical components.

Objective:To investigate the combined application of cytology, cell block histology and immunohistochemistry to improve the diagnostic accuracy of solid pancreatic lesions in endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) samples.Methods:The pathological data of EUS-FNA in 311 cases of solid pancreatic lesions submitted to the Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University, Shijiazhuang, China from May 2019 to September 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. The cases included pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC, 172 cases), solid pseudopapillary neoplasm (SPN, 12 cases), neuroendocrine tumors (PNET, 14 cases) and chronic pancreatitis (113 cases). The cytological features of smears, the histology of cell block sections and the diagnostic markers in PDAC, SPN and PNET were analyzed. The diagnostic accuracies of cytology, cell block histology/immunohistochemistry and combination of the two methods for classifying these pancreatic solid lesions were evaluated.Results:Irregular arrangement of atypical (cancer) cells, anisonucleosis and nuclear atypia were the typical cytological features of PDAC, while presence of pseudopapillae with a myxoid/hyalinized fibrovascular core and low adhesion/salt-and-pepper chromatin were diagnostic features of SPN and NET, respectively. Immunohistochemical results showed that CK7 and CK19 were the most sensitive markers of pancreatic ductal epithelia, and the diffuse strong expression of S-100P (102/111, 91.9%) and aberrant expression of p53 (80/111, 72.1%) were important immunophenotypic markers of PDAC. Various degrees of CDX2 expression could be found in 66.4% PDAC. The expression of CD10, PR, vimentin, CD99 and cyclinD1 and the aberrant expression of β-catenin were the immunophenotypic features of SPN, while the expression of CgA, Syn and CD56 were indispensable immunemarkers for the diagnosis of PNET. Overall, cytology had higher sensitivity than cell block histology (93.9% versus 82.8%) and lower specificity (92.9% versus 99.1%), while the combination of the two methods significantly improved the sensitivity to 96.9% in solid pancreatic lesions. The combination of cytology and cell block histology could significantly improve the diagnostic efficacy of EUS-FNA in PDAC.Conclusions:Integrated diagnosis based on cytology (including rapid on-site evaluation), cell block histology and immunohistochemical findings could significantly improve the diagnostic yield of EUS-FNA in classifying solid pancreatic lesions.

Objective To explore the role of miR-204-3p in silicosis and to elucidate the mechanism by which it affects silicosis fibers by regulating silica dust-induced alveolar epithelial-mesenchymal transition(EMT)in rats.Methods Forty SD rats were divided randomly into 4 groups:Control,Silicosis,AAV-Control,and AAV-miR-204-3p groups.The pathology of lung tissue damage was detected by hematoxylin and eosin(HE)and Masson staining.Relative expression levels of miR-204-3p and EMT marker genes in lung tissues from rats in each group were analyzed by real-time fluorescence reverse transcription quantitative PCR(RT-qPCR),and protein expression levels of EMT-related markers in lung tissues were detected by Western blot.Results The alveolar structure was damaged,the lung septa showed interstitial fibrosis,and expression levels of mesenchymal markers were elevated in the Silicosis group compared with the Control group(P＜0.05,P＜0.01,P＜0.001).The alveolar structure was more complete,the EMT process was alleviated,fibrosis was improved,and mesenchymal marker expression was reduced in the AAV-miR-204-3p group compared with the AAV-Control group(P＜0.05,P＜0.01,P＜0.001).Conclusions Free silica dust induces EMT in rat lung tissue.Overexpression of miR-204-3p can attenuate the EMT process induced by free silica dust in rats,and may thus affect silicosis fibrosis.

Objective To investigate and compare the effects of electroacupuncture and dexamethasone on lung function and histomorphology and behavior in the offspring of perinatal nicotine exposure(PNE)rats.Methods Twenty-four pregnant Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into control,model,electroacupuncture shallow needling,and dexamethasone groups using the random number table method(n=6 rats per group).A pulmonary dysplasia model in offspring rats with PNE was prepared by cervicodorsal subcutaneous injection with nicotine,and successful establishment of the model was confirmed by demonstrating statistically significant differences in growth parameters,lung function,and lung morphology compared to the control group.From the sixth day of maternal conception,the control group received cervicodorsal subcutaneous injection with 0.9%sodium chloride solution(1 mg/kg once per day),and the remaining groups were similarly injected with nicotine(1 mg/kg once per day).Concurrent with the nicotine injections,the electroacupuncture shallow needling group received electroacupuncture interventions at the"Zusanli"(ST 36)acupoint on both sides once a day for 20 min.In contrast,the offspring rats in the dexamethasone group received intraperitoneal dexamethasone injections from postnatal day 8(1.5 mg/kg once per day for 3 days),with a later dose of 0.75 mg/kg once per day for 4 days.Following successful model establishment,four offspring per rat were retained in each group using the random number table method.Until the 21st day after the birth of the offspring,using the random number table method,one offspring randomly selected from the four retained offspring per rat in each group was assigned to growth parameter assessment including body weight,lung weight,and lung index;simultaneously,one offspring was randomly selected for pulmonary function which was detected by a small animal pulmonary function machine,with the parameters of forced vital capacity(FVC),functional residual capacity(FRC),dynamic lung compliance(Cdyn),peak expiratory flow(PEF),peak inspiratory flow(PIF),and airway resistance(RL);concurrently,one offspring was randomly selected for hematoxylin and eosin staining to observe the histomorphology of the lung tissue,alveolar numbers,and mean alveolar septal thickness;additionally,one offspring was randomly selected for Morris water maze testing to evaluate the effects of the two intervention methods on learning and memory capabilities in offspring rats with PNE.Results Compared with the control group,the body weight,lung weight,lung index,FVC,PEF,FRC,Cdyn,alveolar number,platform crossing times,target quadrant time percentage,and target quadrant path percentage in the Morris water maze experiment were significantly decreased in the offspring rats of the model group(P<0.01).In contrast,PIF,RL,average thickness of alveolar septa,and latency of the Morris water maze experiment were significantly increased in the offspring rats of the model group(P<0.01).Compared with the model group,both electroacupuncture shallow needling group and dexamethasone group exhibited significant increases in body weight,lung weight,lung index,FVC,PEF,FRC,Cdyn,and alveolar numbers(P<0.05,P<0.01),along with significant decreases in PIF,RL values,and mean alveolar septal thickness(P<0.01).However,in the Morris water maze experiment,compared with the model group,the electroacupuncture shallow needling group demonstrated significantly more platform crossing times and a higher target quadrant time percentage and target quadrant path percentage(P<0.01),coupled with reduced latency period(P<0.01),whereas the dexamethasone group showed no significant differences compared to the model group.Compared to the electroacupuncture shallow needling group,the dexamethasone group showed significantly less platform crossing times and a lower target quadrant time percentage and target quadrant path percentage,coupled with increased latency period(P<0.01).Conclusion Both electroacupuncture and dexamethasone demonstrated protective effects on lung development in PNE offspring rats by ameliorating lung histomorphology and pulmonary function.However,offspring receiving late,small-dose,short-course dexamethasone exhibited inferior learning and memory capabilities,whereas the electroacupuncture group showed significantly superior cognitive performance compared to the dexamethasone group.

Objective:To investigate the accuracy and clinical utility of a newly designed acetabular bone defect classification system based on the ischial-gluteal pillar in assessing the severity of acetabular bone defects and guiding hip revision surgery.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 474 patients who underwent hip revision surgery for prosthetic loosening after total hip arthroplasty at our institution from January 2010 to December 2020, including 296 males and 178 females with a mean age of 70.4±8.9 years (range: 52-86 years). The accuracy of our classification system in guiding surgical procedures was evaluated by comparing preoperative defect classifications with intraoperative findings. Clinical outcomes were evaluated using preoperative and final follow-up Harris hip scores (HHS) and Oxford hip scores (OHS), as well as the incidence of complications.Results:Preoperative classifications included 143 Type I, 192 Type II (Type IIa: 86 cases, Type IIb: 59 cases, Type IIc: 47 cases), 93 Type III (Type IIIa: 54 cases, Type IIIb: 27 cases, Type IIIc: 12 cases), and 46 Type IV cases (Type IVa: 32 cases, Type IVb: 9 cases, Type IVc: 5 cases). Compared with intraoperative findings, classification accuracy was 99.3% for Type I (1 errors), 98.4% for Type II (3 errors), 97.8% for Type III (2 errors), and 97.8% for Type IV (1 misclassified as Type III). The mean follow-up was 5.8±4.4 years (range: 2-12 years). At final follow-up, mean HHS improved from 36.65±10.27 to 91.36±7.53, and mean OHS increased from 11.35±4.36 to 44.6±5.27 with significant difference ( P<0.001). Complications included one Type IV periprosthetic infection, one Type II hip dislocation, one Type I and two Type IV re-revisions (due to femoral loosening or graft resorption), one Type II and one Type III death unrelated to surgery, and one Type I postoperative thigh hematoma. No neurovascular injuries occurred. Conclusions:This novel 3D acetabular bone defect classification system, based on ischial-gluteal pillar integrity, provides accurate preoperative assessment and effectively guides surgical planning. Its application demonstrates favorable mid-term outcomes in hip revision surgery.

BACKGROUND:Protein is one of the essential nutrients for the human body and is a key component of human cell tissue.Protein supplementation can promote the synthesis of myofibrillar protein and play a key role in strength training.However,the interaction mechanism and signaling pathway between protein and exercise are still unclear.OBJECTIVE:To explore the mechanism of interaction between exercise and protein,and to optimize the benefits of protein supplementation on exercise performance.METHODS:Using"sports,proteins,amino acids,polypeptide,interaction mechanisms,signaling pathway"as Chinese and English search terms,we searched WanFang Data,CNKI,VIP,and PubMed databases respectively.Articles were screened according to the inclusion criteria,and finally 73 articles were included in the review.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Current research on protein supplementation promoting exercise performance mainly focuses on promoting muscle growth,endurance improvement,and body recovery through protein supplementation,but there are differences in the existing experimental results.The interaction mechanism between protein molecules and proteins in the body is not yet clear.The research on the interaction mechanism between exercise and peptides is still in its infancy.Exercise can stimulate the full absorption of external protein intake,which can affect the mechanism of protein molecules in the body.Supplementing peptide nutrition can more accurately affect the body's state,thus better eliminating the phenomena of"sub-health"and"modern diseases."Therefore,studying the interaction mechanism between exercise and proteins is particularly important,delving into the specific mechanisms by which amino acids act on the body,and further exploring the interaction mechanism between exercise and peptides.
